2 weeks have passed ever since we found the dimensional riff and fought that medium-ranked hobgoblin

Right now, I... Mary green, am in serious trouble.

A week ago someone fell into a dimensional rift and found herself on earth. Ordered by the Goddess, I tried to make her go back yet failed miserably because of the location of the riff. Now, the girl that fell is staying in my house here on earth and is growing stronger every day by gathering what they call "Qi," the only problem is the "Qi" that she is gathering every day is my "Mana" which in turn makes me weaker every day.

"What should I do... my mana is now at its lowest ever since I killed the demon lord."

Mana is very essential for me to fight. After all, I am not a fighter but rather a mage, I think? If my mana runs out I can no longer fight and it turns me useless in battle.

Right now I have to think of a way to reach that riff A.S.A.P before something happens and I can no longer use mana to fight.

"If only I could go to Shea's world and gather mana there, that way I could fully refill my mana and return back to earth."

Right now for the past week, both Shea and I tried different approaches when it comes to reaching the riff only to fail every time.

The best way that I thought of was to rent a helicopter. So I tried asking Mark if he knows how to rent a helicopter, only to be met with the fact that I can but cannot at the same time because of financial issues. It is weird that Mark knows everything about renting a helicopter though, he even knows which helicopter is better to use and the amount it needs to rent, of course, he warned me about how I can't rent military helicopters. I don't know if he found it on the internet, but it sure is weird seeing a convenience store worker talking about how expensive helicopters are.

I could try asking my parents for money. However, they would grow suspicious about it...

'My parents are both diplomats. They're currently both stationed in different corners of the world which is why they don't mind if I dropped out of college since we're relatively rich too and I was in a coma that made me lag behind my peers and started college later. Furthermore, they tried to make me like them but I refused because I missed my hometown so much. And now, three months after I woke up, I only live off the allowances they give me. So if they found out what I did with the money, they would force me to work with them.'

Hmmm... I wonder what I should do?

But before Mary could think of another way he was met with a voice.

"Mary, what are you doing? Let's go."

The voice was none other than the girl who fell, Shea.

"Yeah! just wait a minute"

As if Mary forgot that he was in dire measure, he went and approached the hanging keys on the wall and went outside to follow Shea.

After he went out he was met by Shea's well-dressed look.

Apparently, Shea got into earth's fashion ever since she wore that light dress that Mary gave her. To further her interest Mary showed her the glory of Binterest and the thousands of clothing combinations that the people wear.

Seeing the different ways that people dress in this world Shea's eyes shined like a thousand stars and started studying the combinations of clothing in there.

Since Mary doesn't have female clothing, Shea could only dress in an article of male clothing. So seeing her right now was mind-blowing for Mary.

Shea was wearing an open zip-up hoodie with a white shirt inside with a logo which made her well-shaped upper body even more visible. What's more, she was wearing a sneaker with knee-high socks that Mary used to wear for sports. Additionally, she wore a short skirt that we found in my mother's cupboard.

Mary doesn't know why his mother had a short skirt, but when they found it Shea took a liking to it because of how easy it was to move.

'This girl really found a way to dress up with my clothes, of course, there was also the short skirt from mom but she still manage to do it, I'm impressed

Mary was staring at her figure respectfully(A/N: wink, wink), then Shea noticed and tried to cover her body with the zip-up hoodie.

"Is it weird?" Shea said bashfully

When Mary heard her speak he broke his blank mind and started talking.

"No, no, no. In fact, it suits you. I swear!'

"Is that so? Let's go." Hearing the reply, Shea loosened and started approaching the sport bike that was parked in the garage.

After getting the hint that he should go and drive already Mary relaxed and approached the sport bike.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Strong winds covered my body. Houses were flying swiftly and the clouds slowly passed by. Unlike the flying swords back in my world, the thing that I am riding was more similar to a carriage than flying with a sword, That's what Mary said.

My head was covered in a thing called a motorcycle helmet. My long hair peeking under the helmet was fluttering in the wind and my head was leaning on a boy's back. Unlike what I thought, his back was more muscular and stronger than I thought. Not just that, I can fill the Qi trapped inside every fiber of muscle, proof of a strong fighter.

I tried asking him about it but he only replied with a creepy smile that he only knew how to cast spells.

I don't know why he tries to ignore it, but the proof inside his body never lies. The more that I stay in this world the stronger I grow, and the more I live in the same house with Mary the more I notice his habits and body.

Unlike the people who only cast spells in my world, his body was more muscular. His muscles were also chiseled into perfection to the point that every time I see him raise his shirt I get shy. But what makes it more amazing was the fact that every muscle has Qi flowing in them.

That's why I never understood why he would lie about being a good fighter. Sometimes people would even show the world their strength. Yet, I never knew why he would hide it.

That is what I thought 2 weeks ago. After staying with him, I could tell that he was cautious. Too cautious to the point that he would waste his Qi to surround the neighborhood just to know if anything dangerous is happening.

Not just that, he tends to overthink sometimes.

There was this one time I saw him staring at a cat for minutes thinking if he should pet it or not. In the end, he just ignored it. (A/N: What a wuss)

But even with all of that, there is a habit that has shined the most on me, and that is...

'His kindness'

And I... was leeching on his kindness.

He probably didn't know that I knew the fact that the QI that I was gathering was his.

At first, I was guilty. But my responsibility will always be my first priority, even if I have to leech on other people's power.

'After all, I need to be stronger-'

All of a sudden her mind went blank

After Shea thought of getting stronger, something triggered inside her mind. Memories were flooding inside her brain and this memory was something that she is not familiar with.

This flood of memories was overflowing Shea's mind, voices that she is not familiar with were overflowing her line of thought.

'Lei, you will grow strong one day-' a man whose face was covered because of the sunlight said to her.

'I'm sure of it, Lei will grow strong-' this time a girl with scarlet hair and fox ears said to her with a sense of confidence

'Lei!-' Then the memory turned into her playing with the scarlet-haired girl

... Shea-!

'Lei run!!! don't get caught-' However, the memory of this was one of a massacre.

Hey, Shea-!!!

'So you're Lei, you'll be useful one day this time she was no longer with the scarlet-haired girl but with a beautiful lady

"SHEA!!!"

"...Huh?"

With the scream of a loud voice, the memories stopped and a familiar sense of kindness was in front of her.

"Finally, you're reacting. I was screaming at you for a long time, and I couldn't even see your face because of the helmet."

But even after Mary said that what Mary was thinking is different.

"Huh? I... My name is Shea. That's right, Shea!" Shea yelled with joy.

"Shea... what's with you? are you okay? we already reached our destination but if you're feeling unwell we could go back." Mary said as he grabbed Shea by her arms.

"No need, I am fine," Shea said as she removed her helmet and straightened her body up.

'I don't know why I just had that memory but I am sure that I had nothing to do with that. After all, I am Shea, not Leah.'

"If that's what you say so, then Let's go...! Shopping that is." Mary said with excitement.

'Now is not the time to think about memories. This world is really diverse when it comes to fashion and I was interested in it so It's time to indulge myself in their clothing and try out different ways to dress!'
